Measure N Proposes $321M Bond to Modernize Los Gatos and Saratoga High Schools
What happened
Measure N targets both Los Gatos High School and Saratoga High School for modernization. If approved, the Los Gatos-Saratoga Union High School District would issue $321 million in bonds to fund maintenance, technology upgrades, and building safety at both schools. The measure would require an increase in property taxes of $30 per $100,000 in assessed value if passed with a 55% majority.
